home. It has been set on fire. I strongly condemn this violence. This is not justifiable.
Politics aside, this man spoke a lot of truth and exposed corruption fearlessly. The biggest blunder he committed being recording conversations.
This is not a political post. I have always admired him as a human being, his courage and his politically incorrect ways.
Arenโt only 50 guests allowed at a wedding? (Correct me if Iโm wrong). Because just yesterday, a private media channel hosted a Christmas party with many guests and definetely well over 50 guests. This was televised too to be telecasted. How is this fair?
Last night an old man was sleeping outside my house. He said he was an accountant who was in colombo in search of work & couldnโt afford to go home everyday so he slept on the street. Gave him some food & money to go home. This is just one of many who face a bitter struggle.
Was verbally assaulted and threatened by an Uber driver today because it was a card payment and since I refused to tell him Where My drop off would be when he called me prior to picking me up. He refused to turn on the AC too.

Tanzania's president, Samia Suluhu Hassan, has cancelled Independence Day celebrations scheduled for Friday, December 9 (2022) and has directed that the budget instead be used to build dormitories for children with special needs.
Some on twitter are convinced that only their opinion is right and anyone who doesnโt share their view is wrong. Thatโs okay.
But whatโs not okay is when they insult others who do not share their views. Yet some of them also advocate for free speech. The irony.
Newly appointed minister S B Dissanayake states that the dollar crisis is not a major issue and that it can resolved easily.
I wonder what suggestions he can put forward.
While some cricket legends and known personalities openly speak out against whatโs happening in the country, it is appalling that some well known cricketers and influential personalities keep silent when the people of the country are suffering. Selfish motives?
And another media channel is hosting a Christmas party today. How is this happening? Iโm not against people celebrating but shouldnโt the same law apply to everyone? Unbelievable.
Wishing all of you a happy, peaceful and prosperous Sinhala and Tamil new year!

I usually refrain from commenting on politics but Iโm just overwhelmed by whatโs going on. People related to people I know are sick & in a critical condition or dying. They say they canโt lockdown because of the economy but who is to blame for the economy in the first place?!

I never agreed with everything that Sanath Nishantha did as a politician, but itโs shocking to see people mocking and celebrating his death on social media. Iโm shocked that there is no basic human decency . Do remember that we all die someday too.
The level of patriarchy & intimidation even in these modern times is unbelievable. Disheartening to see such discrimination. We should be celebrating the progress women make in their respective fields & not standing in the way of it.
Always wondered why people who are not into politics (or not affiliated to any political party) get politicians to sign at their weddings ๐ค thinking out loud ๐ณ
To the most strongest woman I know, I never had to look elsewhere for inspiration, Thankyou for inspiring me everyday to be the best version of myself โฅ๏ธ happy womenโs day!

received a call from a woman in โpower whoโ(not naming as I donโt wish to cause offense) blamed me, telling me off harshly because of the post I made on FB about the Mrs world pageant. She talks about women empowerment but attempts to surpress another womanโs opinion. The irony.

Last drive for a while I suppose as we ran out of fuel today after shopping for essentials. This is what it has come to now. Never knew a government could mess up this bad!
The aragalaya was a historical movement which was very effective. But whatโs happening now? Lawlessness, forcibly entering media stations and citizens attacking citizens and ambulances. How does this make sense?
This wrong on all levels. Why vehicle permits when people in Srilanka (the taxpayers) are faced with a grave economic crisis??? Hope the president will not allow this as it says โgovernments alleged moveโ
A tense situation was reported near the Presidential Secretariat today when a group of Police officials confronted individuals protesting against the governmentโs alleged move to provide vehicle permits for Parliamentarians

So is that fair then? The common man canโt have a wedding with over 50 people. Some Kids canโt have a graduation ceremony after years of hard work , limited guests at church etc but you can have a Christmas party in the midst of a pandemic? One country one law
